How Automatic Transmission of the RDI-L Indicator Works
Consider that the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block (within a given channel) has been configured to
automatically transmit the RDI-L indicator whenever the corresponding Receive STS-3 TOH Processor block
detects an LOS condition.
Figure 59 presents a simple illustration of the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor and
Receive STS-3 TOH Processor block pair.
Further, this figure indicates that the Receive STS-3 TOH
Processor block is not declaring the LOS condition.
Figure 59 Illustration of a Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor and Receive STS-3 TOH Processor block
pair, when LOS is not being declared.
As a consequence, the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block will, in-turn, not transmit the RDI-L indicator (by
setting bits 6, 7 and 8, of the K2 byte, to a value other than [1, 1, 0]).
Figure 57 presents a different illustration of the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor and Receive STS-3 TOH
Processor blocks. In this case, the Receive STS-3 TOH Processor block is now declaring the LOS condition.
As a consequence, the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block will, in-turn, transmit the RDI-L indicator, by
setting bits 6, 7 and 8 (of the K2 byte), within the outbound STS-3 signal to the value [1, 1, 0].

the Remote Terminal coincident with the Receive STS-3 TOH Processor block declaring an LOS
condition.

TRANSMISSION OF THE REI-L INDICATOR
The Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block can be configured to transmit the REI-L indicator either (1)
automatically, (2) upon software command, or (3) via the TxPOH External Input Port, as described below.

Configuring the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor Block to automatically transmit the
REI-L Indicator
The user can configure the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block to automatically transmit the REI-L indicator
whenever the corresponding Receive STS-3c TOH Processor block detects at least one B2 byte error.
The user can configure the Transmit STS-3 TOH Processor block to automatically transmit the REI-L
indicator, in response to detection of B2 byte errors, by executing the following steps.
STEP 1 – Write the value “0” into Bit 0 (M0M1 Insert Method[1]) within the “Transmit STS-3 Transport
– SONET Transmit Control Register – Byte 1”; as depicted below.
